The charging speeds are a big bump compared to theoriginal Pixel Stand, which launched alongside thePixel 3 seriesin 2018 and maxed out at 10W.
As we previously commentedhere, the 23W rating means Google’s new flagship phone will beat the best competitors from Apple and Samsung. Other Android flagship phones, like theOnePlus 9 Proand its 50W wireless charging capabilities, are still better.
Visually, the second-gen Pixel Stand has received a design refresh and now features a unibody design, as opposed to the two-piece construction of the previous generation.
The Pixel Stand (2ndgen) also features a cooling fan to keep your devices from overheating while power is transferred. Google says it’s “nearly silent,” yet efficient enough to allow users to charge devices while streaming or making video calls.
In terms of exclusive features, Pixel phone owners will be able to monitor their Nest cameras, and interact with Google Assistant visual spotlight, Photo Frame, Sunrise Alarm, and more.
The Pixel Stand (2ndgen) costs $79 and iscurrently listed as coming soon in the Google Store.
